Close Window in IE from javascript. (Small Hack)

When trying to close an window from javascript in IE, which is opened manually,
a security warning “The web page you are viewing is trying to close the window. Do you want to close this window? Yes|No ” is popping up. Is there any possibility to close a window silently? Yes.

A simple hack i found on the web will help to get rid of this situation.

this.focus();
self.opener = this;
self.close();

but in Firefox you can do this. Firefox will not allow you to close using the above code. Maybe anybody found/having any code post it here.

In main window, there is button with caption ‘open popup’. when I press this button a popup appears which has some data, I select one option and then press submit button appearing on this popup. now interally, AJAX call is made which takes this selected data and make a search to find the records and passes these records to main window. but after this popup is not closed in mozilla firefox. but it is working fine in IE7+. Also if I press cancel button on the popup it closes.
one more thing is that if I press submit button, data comes on the main window but popup doesnt closes, now if I click anywhere on the popup it closes.
can anyone give me the reason and solve my problem?

I am using Frames in my default page. After visiting some more pages, I want to close the previous page and come back to default page.
The first page I am opening is not in frames. After logging in, I am opening the default page without toolbar etc. and fullscreen. I am using an in between page to make the browser settings and I want to close that intermediate page (which does not contain anything) but I get alert message window.close(). How to avoid this?

First of all I want to say excellent blog! I had a quick question in which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind.
I was interested to find out how you center yourself and clear your
head before writing. I have had trouble clearing my
mind in getting my ideas out there. I do take pleasure in writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are generally lost just trying to
figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or tips?
Cheers!
